  1. Long range GFS is showing a series of good pushes of continental Canadian air from 5/11-5/20 or so. Hoping we can cash that in before summer loads up and locks in.
  2. Good T-storm in Uptown Charlotte today. Drove from Matthews where it was partly cloudy directly into the storm on my way into town. Back at my place Uptown it was perfectly clear only an hour later.
  3. 588 Ridge on the 500 MB chart showing up next week. Hope that isn't a permanent feature this summer, but we all know how this is going to go.
  4. Long range GFS has Bermuda High setting up with a return of 60+ for lows and 80+ for highs. In mid-April. Of course this is going to verify perfectly after nothing else did this winter.
  5. So this means the rubber-band will rebound and we will have a significantly below average summer temps, right?
  6. At this point I'm just hoping we drop below freezing again for several nights in a row. Long range models not looking great, bob.
  7. Beautiful shot. Would totally belong in an urban development forum.
  8. Making my yearly trip to Michigan to see family. What a #@*!fest, snow-wise.
  9. Even if this storm was a lot more sleet than I wanted, at least Charlotte has had winter weather accumulate on 3 consecutive days by December 10th. Not sure if that has ever happened before.
  10. Yeah, the NWS was on the bullish end. Brad Panovich (local met) nailed the forecast in my opinion, at least from I-85 and south.
  11. Started as rain, turned to snow, then sleet, then freezing rain, then more sleet, now just plain rain. Uptown Charlotte. Currently have 2.5 inches of compacted frozen slop everywhere. Including the rain we are getting now my guess is 3.5-4 inches of frozen precip that accumulated, which is right in line with forecasts.
  12. That's understating what I have in Uptown and what I have seen elsewhere. Not a lot here, but still seems low vs. what I've seen and heard from others. Sorry about SE side of town though.
  13. Wasn't wrong for Charlotte unfortunately. Point taken overall, though.
  14. Any room in here? Seems the western half of the Triangle has cashed in on a few events recently. Charlotte unfortunately remains a battle-line. Maybe I shouldn't have moved lol
  15. Uptown Charlotte, pouring sleet outside. About 1.5 inches of sleet accumulation looks to be here to stay. At least 0.2 ZR on cars parked outside as well. Congrats to the Triangle folks who cashed in. Happy for y'all, just share the wealth next time
  16. Snow/sleet mix in Uptown Charlotte. A lot of pingers on my window now.
  17. Nearing 1 inch on elevated surfaces and 1/2 inch on untreated roads. Uptown Charlotte.
  18. Starting to stick on pavement in Uptown Charlotte.
  19. Right on cue starting at midnight - big flat flakes pouring down in Uptown. Not sticking to the ground yet from the rain earlier but give it time.
  20. Just switched to light snow in Uptown Charlotte. It is all melting on contact for now, just need another degree or two.
  21. Airport readings from Charlotte-Douglas just flipped to snow. 6 miles west of Uptown.
